If I had to describe Career of Evil in two words, it would be: Enjoyable <br/>and Gruesome.<br/>I really loved how much the story centered around the characters, rather <br/>than the crime. I enjoyed the new information about Robin and Strike and <br/>how their relationship developed further. J.K.R. is doing such a good <br/>job in developing it.<br/>But then the book was really...explicit. There were nights when I had <br/>nightmares after reading it. Some scenes were downright disgusting. I <br/>don't see it as a bad thing though, don't get me wrong. It was fitting, <br/>but still, stomach turning.<br/>What vexed me most was the the end! What does it mean? What will happen? <br/>She can't possibly leave it at that cliffhanger!<br/>Overall an enjoyable book and definitely more interesting than the first <br/>two!
